Increase Browsing Speed in Mozilla Firefox – Speed up Firefox

[TreasonousBastard]

9. I've been annoyed by slow page loading, too, but...

I just added AdBlock to Firefox, cleaned out the cache, erased 5,000 history entries and restarted my Win 8.1 box-- everything started loading briskly. Just opened a 253 post thread in GD and it popped right up.

It's 3:30 AM so there's probably little traffic, but at 2:30 this box was a pig and took forever to load, so that might not be all of it.

Been using Opera since some point before God (back when it put Netscape to sleep) and that hasn't slowed as much, but has slowed some. Just ended up moving much stuff to Firefox because the latest Opera isn't that much different and the older one can't handle many new sites.

Biggest problem I have with all of them is the 300 pages of code, graphics, spyshit, clickbait, twitter clickshit, and everything else they stick you with so you can read the lousy 4 paragraph story you want to see. DU isn't nearly as bad as many of them, but there's still enough to filter out.
